Buying a new construction house. Offer is accepted. Inspection came back. Inspector found that the master bathroom tub is damaged. Inspector says tub requires repair to prevent water damage. Realtor and I asked for replacement, they came back with them repairing it. I am concerned. I'm not a contractor to know by looking what is too far gone. Tub is an enclosed unit about 3/4 the way up the wall. I feel like this is unacceptable, is it?

New house, they should repace....I would have prior to the inspection...Builder should have known priot to putting on market.

Replace....not repair.
